“If there’s one commodity in great demand and short supply in our fast-paced, chaotic, unpredictable world, it’s peace. Not only are nations warring against each other, but many of us are fighting an intense, internal war for inner peace. In Calming the Storm Within, Jim Lange has written an honest account of his own quest for peace, filled with examples from everyday life. In the process, he charts a practical, straight-forward path to peace we all can follow, using principles firmly anchored in timeless, tried and tested principles from the Scriptures.”

“Most people , if not all, are in pursuit of inner peace. However, many have yet to find it. We have heard that it is achievable, but we still find ourselves searching for it. Jim Lange has done an excellent job of describing what keeps us from peace and then shares a process of how we can truly experience inner peace…regardless of our circumstances. Jim, thank you for writing Calming the Storm Within –it has helped me and I know it will help many others!”

“Do you lack peace in your life? Then you need to read Calming the Storm Within... I found it an excellent resource in my life and know you will too." ~Os Hillman

Resources

Soon after college, I developed this insatiable appetite for knowledge. Not just any knowledge, but the knowledge that would help me to become better. A better business person. A better leader. A better husband. A better father. I wanted to be the best me I could be

in all areas of my life. As a result of that pursuit, over the past seven years or so, I have been able to boil some things down and develop some resources that I believe will be very helpful to you. These are shown below.
